3756102 - HTTP 500 / ASSERTION_FAILED Error During Batch Change/Creation in Manage Batches App

While changing or creating a batch using the 'Manage Batches' app, the system returns an HTTP 500 error similar to the following:

• 500 - HTTP request failed
• Runtime Error: ASSERTION_FAILED
• The OData request processing has been abnormally terminated

The issue occurs after entering the Shelf Life Expiration Date.

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

1. Open the Manage batches app.
2. Add the material.
3. Enter the shelf life expiration date.
4. Error occurs.

The material has a class type 023 classification assigned containing reference characteristics related to batch master fields, such as shelf life expiration date characteristics (for example, LOBM_VFDAT).

A fixed value is maintained for the reference characteristic in the material classification. During batch creation, the system attempts to validate or inherit this predefined value against the value entered in the Manage Batches app.

Because reference characteristics are directly linked to batch database fields, manually maintaining conflicting or restrictive values at material level can lead to inconsistencies during OData processing, resulting in runtime error ASSERTION_FAILED and HTTP 500 termination.

1. Open the material master (Change Material app)
2. Navigate to the Classification tab for the relevant plant.
3. Review the assigned class type 023 characteristics.
4. Identify characteristics related to batch expiration or shelf life dates (for example, LOBM_VFDAT).
5. Remove the manually maintained fixed value from the material classification.
6. Save the material master data.
7. Change/Create the batch again using the 'Manage Batches' app and maintain the Shelf Life Expiration Date.
